The Effective Teaching of Mathematics Course has been designed to assist teachers to enrich the teaching and learning of mathematics in order to achieve positive learning outcomes for their children. Participants will explore mathematical content and concepts in number and algebra, and deepen their knowledge of how children develop understanding in this sub-strand of mathematics. They will use this knowledge to plan learning experiences to engage all of their students and deepen and challenge their thinking.
The use of ICTs (specifically Notebook software) will be explored for the teaching of number and algebra.
The goals of this professional learning are to explore:
This course targets teachers of Years 2-5 and addresses the following focus areas of the AITSL Australian Professional Standards
